People.ai Named as a Cool Vendor by Gartner in CRM Sales Technologies

October 4, 2018

SAN FRANCISCO, CA – People.ai, the only platform that drives revenue intelligence across all go-to-market teams, today announced that the company has been named as a “Cool Vendor” by Gartner, Inc. in the recently published Cool Vendors in CRM Sales Technologies. The October 2018 report was led by analysts Ilona Hansen, Adnan Zijadic, Tad Travis, Melissa Hilbert, and evaluates vendors that are innovative, impactful and intriguing.

Millions of data points are lost every day because they not captured and logged correctly in salesforce automation tools. People.ai uses a data-driven artificial intelligence system to automatically capture customer activity data and then, by using the power of AI, routes and synchronizes the information in real-time to contacts, accounts, and opportunities inside of Salesforce, eliminating any manual entry by salespeople and enabling them with insights to improve close ratios.

Sales reps receive comprehensive datasets to inform their upcoming activities. Furthermore, all sales team members rely on a “single source of truth.”

“We consider Gartner’s recognition of People.ai as a Cool Vendor validation for how we are accelerating enterprises’ growth through the power of artificial intelligence,” said Oleg Rogynskyy, chief executive officer at People.ai. “We have transformed static systems of record, like salesforce automation tools, into dynamic, systems of intelligence that not only increase selling capacity but enables enterprises to understand the business activities and optimal buying coalitions to improve sales execution.”

People.ai uses data collected from email and calendaring systems (notably those of Microsoft 365 and Google), chat systems, such as Slack as well audio and video conferencing services to automatically update or enter information into CRM systems. This eliminates manual work that might lead to inaccurate or duplicated data in SFA systems. Besides automating manual data entry, People.ai enables and displays sales reps’ benchmark scores for use in data-driven coaching. It also provides rich insights into employee activities for use in data science purposes.
